what the heck is this?!

Sign in to disble this ad
so im walking home the other day and i took this back road i dont usually take and i saw this object hanging off of a tree near a house thats being built, my first thought was its a good luck or religious charm, but does anybody know what it is exactly?


it says "pioneer" on the sides, and thats some electronics company, so my guess is that this is some home made charm lol

or an alien homing device @_@

Hi.

You gave me a good laugh, not the kind like on the ATOZ thread, but still a good laugh, thanks.

My guess is that some-one found out just how crappy that speaker is and decided to observe it's flight-path.

Or it was supposed to be used as a target practice and You just happened to walk on the range.

Regards
Sam

Crappy car speakers.

I won't give you another answer until I'm sure that you're on our side.

Now the question is, why would someone hang a car speaker from a tree?

Exactly, throwing it over a power line would have been much more original.
